Ideally, race should not enter into politics.  However, this is not an ideal world,
nor is everyone an ideal thinker.  I don't consider myself to be a racist.  But, because of
events and people that have had an impact on racial issues in the past 40 some years, I am very
leery of racial issues that can't help but impact how we view today's racial biases and whether
race should determine who gets into the White House.  Let's consider that "reverse discrimination"
came to the forefront with Jesse Jackson.  His approach to issues of that day shoved, and not,
perhaps, wrongly so, racial issues involving Americans of color down our throats.  Everything that
the "Whities" and "Honkies" did was wrong.

We had to worry about everything we said and wrote, being sensitive to being "Politically
Correct".  Heaven forbid that any of the Whities or Honkies called anyone of color by the wrong
term or description.  Yet, we had to tolerate being called whatever those in the minority at
the time wanted to call us, lest we be called racists.  Today, if we established a college just
for whites, we'd be racists.  If we established a chamber of commerce for whites, we'd be racists. 
TV for just whites, racists again.  The list could go on and on of things that if we, as whites,
did, we'd be called racists and accused as not being politically correct.  Yet, everything that
minorities do to further themselves is politically correct, and pity the poor fool that says
anything about it.

Then we have the events that have happened since 9-11.  We've had Muslims attack this country, on our own soil.  We're at war against extremists worldwide.  We've had multiple attacks against not
just this country, but several others made by extremists.  Yet, when we view anyone that is not
of the Christian faith with even a little bit of mistrust, we're called racists, bigots, muslim
haters, etc..  And no, I don't hate Muslims.  We've seen hundreds of thousands of those from the
hispanic community march and protest, fly the Mexican flag above an upside down American flag.  And they say they've come here for a better life?  Fine.  God bless them and welcome.  But don't come here and start cutting down that which you came here for.  And because of the huge influx of minorities, our educational systems are overwhelmed for the "need", to be politically correct, to teach languages other than english, hire people that can speak languages other than english.  We now must press "1" for english.  We have to flip thru untold numbers of pages to find directions in english.  Anyone ever hear of the old saying, that when in Rome, do as the Romans do?   

So, in light of all of this and much more, is it so implausible to think that there might be some
of Obama's support that comes from whites with "Black Guilt"?  Sorry, but it was a different time,
and it wasn't us.  I don't accept any blame or guilt for what some of the white community did a
hundred years ago.  Is it so implausible to think that there's not some in the minority
communities that have supported Obama because they, somewhere in the back of their minds, aren't
thinking that this is a time for them to have some pay back with an American of color in the
White House?  Is it so implausible for people to wonder, in light of past events, to wonder if an
American of Color can be a white Americans president?  And, as implausible as it is to me to understand it, I'm going to be called a racist for writing this.
